Manchester United are reportedly confident over the signing of Arsenal wonderkid, Ayden Heaven.
According to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, the Red Devils are optimistic about the possibility of signing the defender from their rivals.
Barcelona and Eintracht Frankfurt are also showing interest in the 18-year-old, who earned his senior debut for the Gunners against Preston North End in the Carabao Cup last October.
According to Romano’s claim, United have already contacted the London club and are presently the front-runner to sign the center-back.

Man United have been impressed with Heaven’s versatility as a talented center-back who can also play left-back.
He is currently among Arsenal’s most gifted young players, and the Gunners have extended their offer to him.
Heaven’s future is still out in the air, but Mikel Arteta’s side would make sure they don’t lose him to one of their fiercest rivals.
Arteta and his team staff would stop at nothing to keep Heaven at the club after losing Chido Obi-Martin to the Red Devils during the summer transfer window.
Mikel Arteta’s team may make some significant moves toward the end of the winter transfer window after missing out on the Premier League title the previous two seasons.
Some of the current players may depart as is the case with Heaven, however new arrivals could be announced before the end of the window.
